Correction of Previously Issued Financial Information

During the second quarter of 2016, we identified a correction to our provision for income taxes for certain prior periods, due to the accounting for the tax effects of foreign currency translation changes on intercompany loans that are considered to be of a long-term investment nature. The Company determined that it had incorrectly applied the accounting guidance in ASC 740, Income Taxes and recorded a deferred tax asset related to foreign currency translation losses in the provision for income taxes, resulting in the Company reporting a lower provision for income taxes in the periods that were impacted.

In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 99, Materiality, and SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, management evaluated the materiality of the error from qualitative and quantitative perspectives, and concluded the error was not material to its previously issued annual and interim financial statements. The cumulative amounts of the total corrections were approximately $20.0 million, of which approximately $12.5 million was attributable to the year ended December 31, 2015. The cumulative amount of the prior period adjustments would have been material to our Statement of Income and Comprehensive Income for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, had we made the correction in that period. Accordingly, we have revised our previously issued financial statements prospectively to correct these errors.

The corrections associated with the provision for income taxes line items as well as other immaterial adjustments are reflected in this 10-K Report for all periods presented and those corrections will be reflected in our future fillings.

The following table presents the effect of the correction on the previously reported consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 and the statements of income and comprehensive income for the years ended 2015 and 2014. The corrections did not have an impact on net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, investing activities or financing activities as presented in the cash flow statement for the years ended 2015 and 2014.
